Gameplay

Shredder's Revenge is a side-scrolling action brawler with a pixelated artstyle. In the game, the player assumes control of Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, Raphael, April O'Neil and Master Splinter as they combat opponents including the Foot Clan, Krang, Bebop and Rocksteady, and Shredder in locations ranging from New York City sewers to Dimension X.[4] The game supports four-player local or online cooperative multiplayer.[2]

Development

The game was developed by Montreal-based Tribute Games. The team had experiences working on brawler games at Ubisoft on Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game and TMNT.[5] Nickelodeon first approached Dotemu following the release of Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap on the possibility of developing an adaptation of one of its franchises. After knowing that Tribute Games has been pitching to Nickelodeon for a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game since 2010, the two companies decided to work together after meeting each other at Game Developers Conference.[6][7] The game was inspired by the animated series in 1987 and the arcade games in the 1990s such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time (1991). Singer Mike Patton was invited to perform the theme song for the game.[6]

Dotemu officially announced the game on March 10, 2021.[8][9] On August 25, 2021, a new trailer was revealed during Gamescom showcasing April O'Neil as a playable character.[10] On February 10, 2022, another trailer was released revealing Master Splinter as a playable character.[11] On April 20, 2022, it was revealed that the game will featuring voice acting, with the original cast of the 1987 series Cam Clarke, Barry Gordon, Rob Paulsen, and Townsend Coleman reprising their roles.[12]
